There is a lot of misinformation and disinformation being heard by your patients about H1N1 2009. The Internet is largely to blame for the confusion and panic. However, the Web and other digital technologies can also provide a great tool to keep your patients properly informed.

Recently in the UK, hospitals in Camden successfully sent out text messages advising patients on what to do if they think they have symptoms of H1N1.

Do you have the right patient mix?
Patient Mix is a tricky road to navigate. Many practices just assume the more patients it sees the more money it makes! Well, what if you could see different patients and make more? What is patient Mix? Patient Mix is the equation that leads to all the patients you see in your practice. Simply put: How many PPO patients, HMO patients, cash patients, and Medicare patients do I have? For example a typical General Practitioner runs about 85-90% on the large HMO patient mix structure. Meaning you are contracted with the top 5-10 HMO/PPO in your area because they control a large patient base. You contract with them and they fill your waiting room with patients.
